Don't touch me!
Put me down!
Everything's okay, it's over.
Let me go! [sobbing]
I'll shut down the subway.
You deal with the villain.
[yo-yo reeling]
[theme song playing]
[Marinette] In the daytime,
I'm Marinette,
just a normal girl
with a normal life.
But there's something about me that
no one knows yet.
Because I've got
a secret.

[Alya] She was scared
of Ladybug? For real?
Yes, I'm telling you.
That's strange, right?
- I didn't do anything to her.
- [Aglae whimpering]
Ah! A lady
A ladybug!
[whimpering]
It's nothing, Aglae.
It's just a nice,
little ladybug.
- Ah! It's going to attack me!
- [spray hissing]
Smells good, what is it?
Essential oils, the scent
is supposed to repel bugs.
Did it go this way? No!
That way? Ah!
There's another one!
- [shrieking]
- [both sigh]
[Aglae] I've been like this
ever since I got akumatized.
At first I was only
scared of butterflies
because they reminded me
of the akuma that hit me.
And now you're scared
of all bugs?
Bees, flies, ladybugs,
I'm even afraid
of Ladybug herself.
But Ladybug isn't scary.
She helps people.
I know, but I can't
control myself.
I'm terrified of getting
akumatized again.
[Marinette] At least
you're safe here.
There won't be any bugs
in the classroom.
Meet for lunch?
- [light music]
- Mm-hmm.
This is all my fault. If I had the
Butterfly Miraculous,
people like Aglae
wouldn't be so traumatized.
It's not your fault. You're already
doing your best
to free the akumatized people and fix all
the damage they cause.
Maybe, but magic ladybugs
don't fix everything.
[sad music]
[Marinette sighs]
- [upbeat music]
- [indistinct chatter]
[whimpers]
It's too hard!
I can't do this!
- [Aglae crying]
- We can't leave her like this.
[Aglae] I thought
I was doing better,
but it's actually
getting worse.
I'll stay home tomorrow
and never go out again
if it means I won't be scared anymore.
No, don't do that.
We can come up with a solution.
I can craft you a
Let's say an anti-bug
protection suit!
Or we could look for a more
rational solution,
one that would actually help Aglae
overcome her fear.
When it comes to
phobias or fears,
seeing a specialist
is most recommended.
I myself see a psychiatrist because I'm on
the autism spectrum.
The autism spectrum?
What's that?
It means I see things in a different way
than you do.
[Markov] Neuroatypical brains provide new
insight into the world!
The problem is that our environment is
designed for neurotypical people.
In my case, for example,
lateness can be distressing
as well as misplaced things
and unfamiliar places.
That's why I see Dr. Psiquat every
Thursday at 6:15 p.m.
She helps me overcome
my difficulties.
But I'm not on
the autism spectrum.
It doesn't matter, Dr. Psiquat can
also help people
with phobias. You're scared
of butterflies,
and I was scared of
the dark, germs, mice,
but I talked to her
and it helped me.
That sounds so lame.
I'd never go.
Too bad because it can also help senseless
and mean people like you.
Don't listen to toxic people with failed
socializing, Aglae.
But what will I talk
to Dr. Psiquat about?
Things you don't always
want to tell other people.
- And that helps you feel better?
- A lot better.
Hmm, okay,
I'll give it a try.
- [tense music]
- [Aglae whimpering]
Thanks for coming
with me, friends.
Oh, my! Alya, Max,
Juleka, Mylene.
I'm not sure I'll have
time to see all of you.
Aglae's your only
appointment, Dr. Psiquat.
- We just came with her.
- Oh, your friends came with you.
Quite significant
and very kind of you all.
If you're ready, Aglae,
you can come with me.
[soft piano music]
[Aglae] What's with
all the models?
Well, life can take
many different paths,
so many that you can
sometimes feel lost,
but I'm here to help you
find your own path
and pick the right vehicle to travel
down it with serenity.
You can have the car
if you like it
and you can sit
anywhere you want.
I spoke to your dad
on the phone.
He told me about some
issues you've been having,
but I'd like to hear it
in your own words.
What would you like
to talk to me about?
I don't know.
Your dad mentioned
a problem with
- butterflies?
- [whimpers]
It's because of the day
I got akumatized.
It was the first day
back at school.
Ladybug had claimed
that she defeated
supervillain Hawk Moth,
so I thought I'd be safe
to leave my house again
and go back to school.
It had been so long
that I didn't know
how to act around
people anymore.
I'd shake, stammer,
I felt like I had
become an alien.
I wanted to be part of the group,
but I couldn't do it.
Since it was the first day back at school,
my science teacher,
Mrs. Dubocquale,
had planned a visit
to the butterfly house
and the lab there.
I wanted to go with
the group, especially
because I used
to love butterflies
and biodiversity
as a whole.
Besides, I thought that
all the akumatizations were over,
that I had no reason
to be scared anymore.
[tense music]
[gasps]
I couldn't do it,
and yet I really wanted
to follow them,
to do like them,
to be like them,
but I just couldn't do it.
And that's when
they showed up.
- [wheels creaking]
- [music stops]
Dr. Psiquat's awesome.
It helped a lot to talk to her, you know?
[Marinette] I didn't know
you were seeing her, too. What for?
Well, let's just say
some kind of complicated family issues.
You never told me about that.
I worked it out
a long time ago.
I don't even think
about it anymore.
Do you think I could talk to Dr. Psiquat
about my father?
Your father? Why? You can talk to me
about him, right?
Yes, of course,
you're right.
Talking with Dr. Psiquat's
different, Marinette.
She's someone from the outside with
specific skills to help.
I help him. I'm his girlfriend,
you know?
I know,
but that's not the point.
How can I put this?
Okay, let's say
we're in a video game
and Adrien is trapped in a maze
being chased by a ghost.
You can face the ghost
and temporarily help Adrien,
but the ghost
will always come back.
Until Adrien figures out
why he can't face the ghost,
he'll be stuck in the maze.
Dr. Psiquat can help him find the exit
by guiding him from the outside.
[victory jingle]
- See what I mean?
- [hesitating] I think I do
and I'd like to try.
It doesn't mean
you're not helpful.
Adrien can talk
to both of you,
but you'll be there to support Adrien
while Dr. Psiquat will heal him.
- [whimsical music]
- [both chuckle]
We can stop for now if you feel like
you need a break.
No, I want to keep going.
All right, you were saying,
"That's when
they showed up."
- Who are "they"?
- [sighs]
[Aglae] They asked me
what was wrong.
I told them I was
scared of butterflies.
They said they'd help me,
that they'd walk into
the greenhouse with me.
[wings fluttering]
They closed
the door behind me
and I was
suddenly all alone.
I could have
walked back out,
but I couldn't
think straight.
I don't know why.
I was completely frozen
and the butterflies
were flying towards me
and among them there was
There was an Ultrakuma,
is that it?
Strange voices spoke to me
and I knew right away
that there was
a new villain in Paris,
that someone had gotten their hands on
the Butterfly Miraculous
lost by Ladybug,
and that this someone was even scarier
than the one before them.
They said that they'd
help me show people
who make fun of my fears how dangerous
butterflies can be.
I accepted
and I don't remember anything that
happened next,
like everyone who's
been akumatized,
but people told me and there are
videos online,
so I still have
these mental images.
[Psiquat] What
kind of images?
I saw videos of me where I'm barely
recognizable.
I looked like
a huge butterfly
and I was attacking the boys who had
made fun of me.
I was told that I called
myself Lady Butterfly
and that I trapped people
inside cocoons,
but I didn't stop
at the three boys.
From what I heard, I went after
everyone in Paris.
Next, according
to witnesses,
Ladybug and the Miraculers
showed up
[sobs] and saved me.
[Psiquat] So, the whole story
didn't end so badly.
Ladybug saved you
and everyone was freed.
- [chimes]
- [all gasp]
Yes, but I could
get akumatized again.
I'm so scared
all the time
and I know that makes me even
more vulnerable.
This fear, precisely,
it's quite significant.
Why were so scared
of getting akumatized
even before
it happened to you?
Because of Time Breaker!
[Psiquat] What am I supposed
to see in the photo?
- Me!
- But you're not in the photo, Aglae.
I am!
She made me disappear!
And how did you
feel about that?
As I was disappearing, I completely
lost track of time.
I didn't know if seconds
or months were passing.
I was scared that soon,
I would no longer exist,
that I'd never see my friends again
or my family,
that I would no longer be able to do
any of the things I want to do!
But that time, too, Ladybug fixed
everything, didn't she?
Yes, and when the magic ladybugs
repaired everything,
I thought I'd be able
to enjoy life again,
even more than before,
but a few days later,
a butterfly landed on me,
and that's when it all started.
I used to love them, but now I was
terrified of them.
I went home and I shut
myself in my room,
I was too scared of something bad
happening to me.
[Psiquat] Thank you for telling me
all this, Aglae.
Now what we're going
to try is to, so to speak,
de-evilize you like Ladybug did when
you were akumatized,
except she did it for you.
I'm going to need you
to do it for yourself.
[hesitating]
What do you mean?
Here's what I propose
in our next session.
- We'll do an exercise
- Hold on!
What next session?
Won't I be healed today?
Oh, I'm afraid not.
Healing depends
on the road ahead
and on the vehicle
you're traveling in.
- Try to have patience.
- But that's not possible.
I can't wait!
I can't stay like this!
It's good to be eager, but--
I was told that if I came here and talked,
I would feel better!
Therapy isn't
a magic solution.
It requires time. I suggest that
when you feel ready,
we'll go back to the butterfly house
together,
- so I can help you overcome your fears.
- [straining]
No! I need you to
help me right now!
You said you would do it
like Ladybug!
- [tense music]
- What I meant was
What is the point of coming here
and spilling my guts
if you won't help me?
You're useless!
I understand you're angry,
but come back.
- Let's talk about it calmly.
- No!
I've talked enough already
and nothing's changed.
I'm never coming back!
[sobbing]
Hmm?
- [elevator dings]
- Is that Aglae?
[gasps]
She took the elevator!
[Chrysalis] Hello.
Forgive my intrusion,
I couldn't help but sense some kind of
frustration in you.
Do you feel guilty that you couldn't
help the girl?
No! Get out of my head!
You're trying to use my emotions
to manipulate me,
but I'll never help you
hurt people!
- I understand your reaction.
- [gasps]
There are many misunderstandings
about me.
Unlike what you'd
want to believe,
I'm trying to help people,
not hurt them.
Wouldn't you desire
a magical solution
that could heal people,
for example?
There is no such thing
as a magical solution!
And yet that's what Ladybug does,
doesn't she?
Magically fixing everything with
a swing of her yo-yo?
Thanks to me, you could do the same and
put an end to people's needless suffering.
I can sense
your hesitation,
and perhaps you're right, people should
find their paths on their own.
Who cares if they suffer for months,
sometimes years on end?
I'll leave you be.
No, wait! I
- [dark music]
- I'll give it a try!
You will? In that case,
what should I call you?
Wreckless Driver!
[whirring]
[music fades]
[Marinette] Aglae!
Aglae, what happened?
This was never
a good idea.
I can't be healed.
I'm going home
and shutting myself
away forever.
There's nothing
that can be done!
The first session is
an unexceptional experience
in seven out of ten cases.
- It doesn't mean you should stop.
- [all gasp]
[all gasp]
Aglae, come back! I can heal you instantly
now just like you wanted!
[gasping]
No, you've been
akumatized!
- What are you doing?
- I'm gonna try to help Aglae.
I'll be super careful,
I promise!
[harrowing music]
[grunts]
I think it's best to cut Dr. Psiquat's
session short for today.
- Tikki, Spots On!
- [chimes]
[grunting]
Don't tell me,
you wanna play Cat Noir
- and rescue your girlfriend.
- Precisely.
- Plagg, Claws Out!
- [whirring]
[action music]
- [panicked whimpering]
- [suspenseful music]
[tires screeching]
[Aglae screams]
[whimpering]
Hmm.
[trilling]
Hmm, quite significant.
You do have a phobia
of insects,
and more specifically
of these awful butterflies,
but I'll fix it for you.
[liquid crackling]
There, you are now de-evilized
and free from all your fears.
[laughing]
[continues laughing]
Thanks to Wreckless Driver, I'm no longer
scared of anything.
- Woohoo!
- Uh, okay. Still, stay here, it's safer.
But there's no danger.
She healed me!
How amazing!
Yeah, well, she still needs to
be de-akumatized.
[sighs] If you must,
but it's a shame.
She's a great
superhero, too.
[intriguing music]
[ding]
- [beeping]
- [Cat Noir panting]
I'm on the akumatized
villain's track, M'Lady.
- Huh?
- [suspenseful music]
Woohoo!
Whoa [laughs]
Two safety measures
are better than one.
No need for safety,
Cat Noir!
I used to be afraid of cars,
but not anymore. Hmm!
[Cat Noir] You can't
stay here, sir.
Why not?
This is where the sun is.
True, but it's also
where cars are.
That's okay,
drivers have eyes.
They'll avoid me.
- [tires screeching]
- Whoa! I'm sorry,
but I can't let you
take this kind of risk.
[man whimpers] Huh?
- Hey, team.
- Voyage!
[grunts]
Clout!
[Driver cackling]
Are you afraid
of me, Ladybug?
Hmm? Quite significant!
Of course I'm not.
We just have to stop you!
But you're not sure whether
it's the right thing to do?
I am, you can't speed up
solutions like this
without there being
some other price to pay.
Sometimes meaningful
help takes time.
- Are you sure? [cackles]
- [screams]
[Driver grunting]
[Ladybug shouts
and grunts]
She's gonna drive us buggy!
[Driver] That's quite
a significant observation.
We could go for
some group therapy.
I'd rather go for a
- [upbeat theme music]
- Lucky Charm!
[chimes]
Uh, okay.
Not sure this will help.
[tense music]
[Driver] What in
the world is all this?
[shouting and grunting]
- [button clicks]
- [wiper squeaking]
[whimpering]
Those are some awesome
illusions, Rena.
Pegasus, we need your portals.
Voyage!
[chuckles]
[shouts]
Looks like it's bath time!
Power Up!
[Ladybug] The Ultrakuma
must be in the car, Kittycat.
It's worth a try, M'Lady.
Catacl
Huh? Aah!
Cat Noir? Everything okay?
Let's see what
you're afraid of, Cat.
[trilling]
Oh, of course! Revealing your
secret identity.
Quite significant!
Well, time to de-evilize.
There! You are now de-evilized
and free. [gasps]
What's going on?
[Chrysalis] It's fine, Wreckless Driver.
I'm just helping you.
[blows]
- [gasps]
- [screams]
[Chrysalis] I've deprived him of his
powers. He's at your mercy.
You can seize
his Miraculous now.
That's not significant at all.
I told you
I only want to do good.
Precisely, if we got our hands on
the Cat Miraculous,
we'd only need
the Ladybug one.
Then we can make a wish
for people to be freed
from their fears
all across the world.
Hm, that would be
very significant.
- [Chrysalis] Wouldn't it?
- Ah!
[Cat Noir] Ah, M'Lady,
am I glad to see you!
This akumatized villain
is amazing.
Thanks to her,
I'm no longer afraid
of revealing
my secret identity.
I can finally tell you--
No talking with
your mouth full, Kittycat.
- [suspenseful music]
- [grunts, gasps]
[shouts]
Polymouse!
Attack!
[Driver shouting]
Whenever you're ready,
Purple Tigress.
Clout!
Clout!
[music fades]
[Rena] Why hasn't
she transformed back?
I don't see an Ultrakuma, which means
it wasn't in the car.
[gasps] Maybe it was something
inside the car.
[tense music]
[gasps]
[Ladybug] No more evil-doing
for you, Ultrakuma.
[upbeat theme music]
Time to de-evilize!
Gotcha!
- [music softens]
- Bye bye, little butterfly.
I'm
Miraculous Ladybug!
[chimes]
[all grunt]
[touching music]
This magical charm
will help you remember
that you should
believe in yourself.
You're a good therapist.
I'm sure you've helped
a lot of people,
people who have had
family problems, phobias,
or communication issues.
You never needed
a magical solution
because you already know how to
de-evilize people, for good,
even though it can take
a while sometimes.
Thank you, Ladybug.
[all] Pound it!
[Chrysalis] You will tell me your secret
in the end, Ladybug,
and when you do, it won't be
the way you think.
[Aglae] I'm sorry, it's my fault
you got akumatized.
No, it's not.
I let my own emotions
get the better of me.
Besides, it's over now.
But I'm still afraid.
Fear can be a good thing.
It teaches us
to be cautious
and not put
ourselves in danger,
but in your case,
fear of insects
has become a phobia that keeps you from
enjoying your life.
That's why we're here with your friends to
help you feel better.
Go as far as you want
and stop any time you want.
- Okay?
- Mm-hmm.
[intriguing music]
[sharp exhale]
[soft chuckle]
[uplifting music]
[whimpers, heavy breathing]
Do you want to go back out?
Yes.
That's an excellent
start, Aglae,
and now you know
no matter how it takes,
you won't be alone
to travel your path.
You've found
a wonderful vehicle,
friendship.
Thanks for coming with me
and for understanding
my need to
talk to Dr. Psiquat.
- Of course.
- [Psiquat] Adrien Agreste?
[touching music]
So, what do you need
to talk about, Adrien?
There's something
strange about my father.
[music fades]
